>We did not waste money.

Why did they have to go and throw this one in? This is entirely subjective. I guarantee that a full audit into their expenses would find at least some waste. Placing such a general comment as the last item in a list of mostly specifics gives it extra importance and seems to imply that the items above it are a waste of money. It gives the whole article a "we know better" vibe that is trying present itself with a "here is what we did" vibe.



I wrote the article and I feel you are right, I should not have put it there... I just wanted to highlight we were frugal.


Agree, I loved it without it and that single one ruined it. You put it perfectly.
